If only planting 1 hybrid then you will not need multi-product unlock
You will have 2 problems when putting clutches on this planter
1. the row configuration complete shifts around when going from beans to corn, I cant exactly remember but I think on row 1 on beans turns into row 4 on the corn configuration, the only to get around this is to have a adapter harness made to plug and unplug when going from beans to corn (at the module)
2. Ag Leader does not have separate shut offs for the different lengths (the front vs rear rows) so most guys will pick the middle for the there shut off measurement. With that said in the headlands the front rows will over plant and the rear row will leave a skip.
This is my understanding also. The drawing on the above post shows what I was referring to when I posted that the front and rear sections cycle together.
I am trying to visualize how the rear ranks are driven by the rear Rawson. I was thinking that the rear sections (3 on the left, 3 on the right and 1 in the center) were ground driven independently. Apparently there is some cross shaft that goes across the entire rear rank if they are driven by a single Rawson for the rear. If that is the case then folding the rear gangs around to make a wider planter for corn would not work. Maybe I'm thinking of a different frame.
As far as assigning the switches, If I remember correctly the default switch assignment will default to using a single switch even if you specify two drives. As I recall you can go into the switch assignment section and assign the drives to which ever switches you wish. More than likely in your case you would leave the front drive on Switch 1 and assign Switch 2 to the the second drive. The Master switch would shut off both drives. The individual switches would allow you to control the front and the rear independently although I still think that would be clumsy
